Roll Cage

Been on the cards for a while but finally got the time to fit the Safety Devices roll cage to my 90.

Took a couple of days to fit and then the following morning to tweek the front section. Quite scary having to cut the holes in the body work but as soon as i started the pilot holes there was no going back!

Neigbour had no idea what i was upto and probably thought that i lost the plot when he saw the size of the holes i was cutting into the body work

Only additions i had to make was a new wing cowling from Mantec for the air intake and heavy duty springs for the rear as the originals were not up to the job. Next was a trip to Salisbury Plain yesterday for no other reason that it was a nice day oh and to declare job done.

Nice,

How much room have you lost inside?

Fancy one of these.

Looks good mate! same cage as I used to have on my old 90.

Bet it was rather dusty out on the areas yesterday wasn't it? I might be out Thursday weather depending (depending on whether it rains or not! rain = no dust

)

Hello Andy

No lose of space at all inside hence i chose this one. Also having looked at other makes the Safety Devices cage fits closer to the body work which is a look that i prefer.

Thanks DJ

Yes very dusty - however the advantage is that it is easier to clean and i dont have to wash all the mud off the drive

I am heading out on the 28th August with a couple of the guys off the forum if you are interested
